Story
Meet Vivi! Vivi came to us through the cat distribution system—she was a stray that walked up to me in my front yard and said “Hello! I’d like to live inside!” She is incredibly sweet and playful, and we brought her in with every intention to be her forever home. She has up to date vaccinations, has been spayed, has a microchip, and the vet estimates that she’s about 2 years old. She’s vivacious and funny with so much love to give. Among telling us how much she loves stuffed animals, fighting butterfly toys, and crunching on dry food, she also told us pretty clearly that she wants to be an only cat. Our multi-cat home is causing her distress and it’s time to find her forever family. If you want a love bug that will bring you her toy and tell you aaaall about it, Vivi is your girl. We will be fully fostering her until she finds her perfect match!

Story
Wow...this kitty has it all !!!!!!!! ADOPT NOW! Please don't scroll by...He doesn't need another tomorrow in rescue. He needs someone to say, "Welcome home." He is only 5 years. Cats regularly live 15-20 years, which means you could have numerous years of cuddles, purrs, and happy mornings ahead. He is already house-trained, past the crazy kitten stage, and knows exactly how to love. Choose the cat who already knows how to be your best friend. Love is forever. Totally vetted and only Adoption fee: $50 He is being fostered by @Saving lives one at a time in Northern Kentucky but email Grace Wilson at rescue@fuse.net and we will put you in touch with Tracy Simpson the adoption coordinator!

Story
We got nugget as a very small kitten and she has been a personality ever since, she is the most loving, playful cat ever she is protective so if a bag tries to get you she will go after the bag lol, since shes became an adult we cannot get anyone to clip her nails so if you know how to deal with scratchy scratchy she is petrified. She loves to personally accompany you to the bathroom kitchen and laundry room, she loves fresh out of the dryer clothes the best. She’s healthy afraid of feet, we think it stems from her as a kitten she watched her sibling get stepped on. She does not know safe play so if you have children and toddlers she doesn’t know gentle she loves to play fight and box and is obsessed with anything xxxx@xxxx.x loves the friskies chewy bite cat food haven’t seemed to get her to eat anything else but is terrified to go outside. She will love on you and cuddle you when you are stressed mad or sad but if u forget to clean her litter box she will let you know

Story
Taylor was hit by a car as a very young kitten and lost his leg, but he doesn’t let that hold him back! He runs, jumps, climbs and plays like any other cat, and even uses his missing leg to his advantage as he skids around corners.   Taylor is great with dogs of all sizes.  He is extremely friendly with people     He’d love to have another playful cat (one who enjoys a bit of pouncing and rough and tumble play) in his forever home    *Taylor is neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, vaccinated and micro chipped. * Male - 4 years old * The amputation does not cause him to have any special needs  *  He has been diagnosed with crystals in his urine and needs to be on prescription food for the rest of his life (Purina UR).  The prescription food (approximately $90 per month) is needed to prevent a urinary blockage. * Adopters must live within 100 miles of Florence, KY * Our adoption application can be found on our website, www.pawprintsnky.comMarch 16, 2026, 12:18 am

Story
Hello everyone!   My name is Tabby! I’m sure you can guess why I got my name! I was brought to the shelter with my Sister Abby (she’s the other kitty in the pic collage) on 6/20/26! We were tiny little babies then! We were found on the streets of Covington KY without our Mama. We are around 16 weeks old currently! My foster parents say I’m the braver one! I’m the first one to try things and seek adventures out! I haven’t ever met a stranger before! I have a spunky personality but also super loving and sweet! I’m always purring 24/7! Abby and I are always together doing things. Whether it’s playing chase, wrestling or snuggling with each other! We are just inseparable! We also are friends with our fosters parents adult cat and 100lb dog! So I think I’d do great in a home with other animals but I’d really love to find my furever home with Abby! I can’t imagine being separated from her! I can’t wait to have my furever home!   I’ve been spayed, UTD on vaccinations and microchipped. My adoption fee is $125 or $225 for Abby & I!
